The aim of this study is to review the effect of the ownership structure (governmental and private) on the relationship between the disclosure quality and the cost of capital. To achieve this purpose, a sample of 107 firms listed in the Tehran Stock Exchange during the years 2006 to 2015 were selected using systematic elimination method and data were analyzed using correlation method and panel data model in E-views and Stata software’s. The results show that with increasing the disclosure quality, the cost of capital reduces. The state ownership has a significantly positive effect and the private ownership also has a significantly negative effect on the cost of capital. The findings also suggest that the state ownership as a moderator variable has a significantly positive effect on the relationship between the disclosure quality and the cost of capital and the private ownership has a significantly negative effect on the relationship between the disclosure quality and the cost of capital.

Influence of managers, specifically CEOs which is used as a mean of control the output of accounting information, may lead to management of disclosure quality timeliness and present information quality aligned with management interests. The presented study goal is to examine influence of CEO on disclosure quality of accounting information in Tehran Stock Exchange Listed Companies. In this paper, CEO tenure, duality of CEO role and mandate of executive board were used to measure management power. To examine the proposed hypothesis in this study, General linear model has been used. The samples were collected from 122 of the Companies listed in the Tehran Stock Exchange Between 2010 to 2017. Findings suggest that timeliness of accounting data has a negative and meaningful relation with management power. Meanwhile there was no trace of a meaningful relation between disclosure quality of accounting information and capacity of reliability on such accounting data; and management power. Such findings indicate that while managers use their power to timeliness of disclosure of data along with their interests, they refuse to use this power to sabotage the capacity of reliability of accounting information.

The speed of transferring of accounting information from transferors to users is so important that it is mentioned in accounting conceptual framework as a qualitative characteristics of accounting information. Barriers and problems discovering in information channel between transferors and users not only can Accelerates the transmission of information but also can benefit users more. In this research we investigate the relationship between disclosure quality and audit report lag for 164 companies of Tehran Stock Exchange between the years of 1387 to 1391. We use disclosure quality ranking, management forecast error and prior period adjustments as the representatives of disclosure quality and test them with audit report lag in Eviews and SPSS software. The findings of panel analysis shows that there is a significant negative relationship between audit report lag and dependent variables, management forecast error and prior period adjustments. The final result shows a positive relationship between disclosure quality and audit report lag. Furthermore there is significant negative relationship between company size and audit report lag and there is no relationship between auditor sizes, having good news or bad news and company debts with audit report lag.
